| CDs And Green Markers. Please Don’t Laugh. Sorry for chiming in so late. Since the „invention“ of green paint I have been using it and changed to black ink (Edding permanent) some time later. Most A/B listening tests resulted in a better performance of all kinds and genres of music. So I a... | |
| How accurate are cable descriptions for your system? Reading or listening online to a cable review: The more I know of the background and the personal taste and the experience of the reviewer, the better I can judge if I can take seriously his/her verdict and advice. It‘s not an easy task. 😀 | |
| Audioquest Storm Series power cables Cables do make a difference. Interconnect and loudspeaker and power cables. What you HEAR depends on the components in your audio system and the overall synergy. And of your individual hearing capacity, of course. In my experience, „even“ power co... | |
| Most Realistic Recordings A very nice thread! I think nobody so far has mentioned „Midnight Sugar“ by the Tsuyoshi Yamamoto Trio , recorded 1974 in Tokyo, and published by the label TBM = three blind mice (TBM-23). You can get it in various media forms from vinyl to CD or... | |
| A first What a nice & friendly thread! I recognize many experiences: I listen in a dedicated room, I am alone (except with an audiophile friend sometimes), my wonderful wife doesn’t care & has no interest, my son listens to background music only,... | |

| Audiophile Priorities and Recent Topics There are so many threads and topics – it's up to you which one you choose. If I'm interested in cables, then I follow cable discussion threads. If I'm interested in fuses, dito. That said, I (probably) will not change my audio components anymo... | |
| My Experience With Tekton I don't own a Tekton speaker nor did I ever hear one (unfortunately), but I read a lot of threads here on Audiogon, on Tekton and on many other subjects. What surprises me ist the kind of furor in a discussion about preferences.I do appreciate sa... | |
| Media: Should we start hoarding? My physical collection of 8'000+ (and still counting) LPs, CDs (and a couple of hundreds CompactCassettes, yeah) will partly go to specialized institutions like a Jazz Archive or professional Music Schools. Unfortunately, my son and his (still you... |
